Scott Steedman, BSI Director-General, Standards
“BSI sees sustainability as our top strategic priority and we are determined to do what we can as an organisation and in our role as the National Standards Body to address climate change. The role of standards, including regulation, is critical in accelerating the global transition to a net zero economy but we know that this is not widely understood by industry, particularly SMEs, governments or consumers. The London Declaration, which BSI signed in September together with the International Organisation for Standardization (ISO), will help us raise the profile of international standards as a tool to scale industry transformation and ensure climate science is fully considered in all new and existing international standards.”
